Why It’s Never Too Early to Start Saving and Investing with Fran Hauser, Founder of Bookbound Co.
Fran Hauser is a true inspiration who has empowered women for decades through her work. In our conversation, she opens up about the profound money lessons she learned from her hardworking immigrant parents at a young age. From doing invoices for her father's business as a child to maxing out her 401k early in her career, Fran shares how those formative experiences instilled strong financial values around saving, responsibility, and appreciating earned income.
We explore the pivotal moments that sparked Fran's passion for investing, like receiving stock options early on in her career and getting exposed to startup opportunities while working at Time, Inc.
She shares fascinating insights into her evolving investment portfolio over the years, ultimately investing in over 35 female-founded companies across different sectors. Fran also gets real about the mindset shifts of running your own business versus having corporate resources to lean on.
On a personal note, Fran shares her heartfelt approach to raising her two adopted sons. She prioritizes passing down money principles through tools like Greenlight for their allowances, while balancing that with an appreciation for experiences over material items.
